Forced to be Aquaman in an escape game

Qiao Yiqiao didn't know about Asa's mental activities at all. Although a certain sea monster acted too roguely, Qiao Yiqiao had to admit that since entering this game until now, a certain sea monster had never really hurt him .

Even has been protecting him.

Whether it was when he fell into the sea at first, or when he was on the ship, whether it was when he faced the ghost, or when he was searching for clues now, apart from suffering from the pit of cross-dressing, Qiao Yiqiao was not even an oily skinned person. Not scuffed, let alone frightened.

Therefore, at this moment, although Qiao Yiqiao felt that a sea monster was too thick-skinned, he fully affirmed the protection of the mark.

So everyone saw Qiao Yiqiao blushing for a while, and said solemnly, "This mark... well, it shouldn't be invalid."

The newcomers don't know Qiao Yiqiao's inner psychological activities at all, but since Mr. Mermaid said that there is no problem, everyone will naturally trust him, "Then let's search the rest of the place."

They have already searched the entire ship, the deck, and some of the cabins, and there is Mr. Mermaid in the captain's room. There is no place to search, only the kitchen, power room and storage room. At this time, Qiao Yiqiao is there. Of course people want to check all the rest of the place.

Mark the routes of all the remaining places that have not been searched in turn, and find that the order from near to far is the kitchen to the storage room to the power room, so according to the principle of proximity, "let's go to the kitchen first."

Qiao Yiqiao nodded. Although the appearance of a heart in the kitchen would give people a particularly bad guess, they are not in a normal world right now. In such a place where ghosts are rampant, it is not surprising that a heart appears anywhere. From this point of view, there is a lot of suspicion in the kitchen.

After a few days on the boat, they had figured out the location of the kitchen a long time ago. At this time, they were familiar with the way. Although the ghosts along the way tried to stop them, it was a pity that what they encountered were not just a group of delicious newcomers who had no resistance. , and there is Qiao Yiqiao with the sea monster mark, so under the blow of dimensionality reduction, he can only kneel in hatred.

Looking at the ghosts lying on the ground, the newcomers were still a little scared, but the more they were afraid, the more they had to overcome, so Qiao Yiqiao was planning to pass by quickly, but when he didn't see them, the newcomers couldn't help whispering With Mr. Mermaid on the side, "Do you think that if you take this opportunity to throw the ghost into the sea, he will resist?"

The others looked at him with speechless eyes: "...you said that if you were going to die soon, would you resist?"

The speaker looked a bit regretful, and the doctor blinked, "Actually, maybe we can cut off part of the ghost's body and try it out. If we throw this part of the body into the sea, will the ghost's body regenerate?"

"Also, I've always been curious. Do you think these crew members will still have human characteristics after they become ghosts? Do you think they have internal organs?"

As he spoke, the doctor's eyes began to shine.

Qiao Yiqiao: "..." What are you all thinking about?Isn't this really a Mad Scientist scene?

Seeing that the doctor was about to move, the newcomers stopped again, "I don't know if the ghosts have internal organs, but if you really do something, it's not certain whether the internal organs are still there."

The doctor showed reluctance, and Song Jiaojiao looked at the ghosts, "Oh, if only the sea water was still there, maybe these ghosts can be wiped out directly, do you think it's too late to lift the sea water now?"

Now, the newcomers are definitely not a little excited, but a lot of excited. Think about it, if they can really take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate the ghost, then wouldn't this dungeon pose no threat to them?

They have already observed that as long as the ghosts are wiped out by sea water, they will never regenerate, which means that they no longer have to worry about it, as long as they lie down safely for seven days, they can pass the instance safely and smoothly.

"But..." a newcomer swallowed his saliva and said reluctantly, "Although the idea is very beautiful, I have to remind you cruelly that the uncertainty of the ghost is like being hurt and will fight back in pain. Are you sure it is true? If you pour sea water on it, will the ghosts just let you go?"

Of course they're not sure.

"And if it fails, Mr. Mermaid's mark will face the possibility of invalidation. Such an action is too risky for us. After all, we should not have another life to gamble with now."

Compared with hatchbacks, searching for clues step by step is obviously a safer and more reliable method. Radical and adventurous are sometimes effective, but it is a life gamble when there is a last resort, not a gamble that there is a safer method. possible.

Everyone showed embarrassing expressions, and looked at the ghosts more and more regretfully. It would be great if these ghosts would be obedient and not move.

Watched by the newcomers, the bodies of the ghosts trembled more and more. Although they couldn't move under the pressure, the ghosts didn't know what was going on at this time, and they really wanted to disobey the order and escape.

So, in such a strange atmosphere, the newcomers finally arrived at the kitchen.

The environment of the kitchen on the ship is not good, because there is a serious lack of various foods on the sea, so the most common ingredients in the kitchen are sea fish. All kinds of sea fish have been processed here for many years, and the fishy smell is enough to dazzle the eyes of newcomers. Smoked tears.

Smelling the death-like smell that is close at hand, all the newcomers are hesitant to move forward. Do they really want to go in?

Song Jiaojiao and the girls even burst into tears. Seeing them, Qiao Yiqiao was very puzzled, "What's wrong with you?"

The newcomers turned their heads to look at Mr. Mermaid's ignorant expression, "Mr. Mermaid, can't you smell the kitchen? It stinks."

All the newcomers covered their noses with their sleeves, for fear of being fainted in the next second.

Only Qiao Yiqiao blinked, and he didn't smell anything. As for the reason... Qiao Yiqiao also remembered, it seemed that it was because he had experienced too many times during the day due to some kind of shortness of breath, and he finally learned He didn't know how to use the gill lines to breathe, and for the sake of instinct, he was breathing with the gill lines at this time. The gill lines can filter out the oxygen in the water, so it is also applicable on the shore at this time.

Therefore, not only did Qiao Yiqiao not smell the stench, but all he was breathing was oxygen.

Qiao Yiqiao couldn't help but blush again, is this a blessing in disguise?As for giving up using the gill lines to breathe through the nose after thinking about it——After seeing the ashen faces and constant retching of the newcomers, Qiao Yiqiao decisively gave up this idea.

The gill pattern is good, the gill pattern is wonderful, and the gill pattern is croaking.

"Then I'll go in and search. You guys wait outside first." Qiao Yiqiao said thoughtfully.

However, looking at the considerate Mr. Mermaid, the newcomers still gave up the idea of ​​lying down and collecting clues. They could have survived thanks to Mr. Mermaid. .

Besides, you can guess the condition of the kitchen just by smelling it. If the sanitary environment inside is really good, the fishy smell will not be so serious. If you want to search for some rotten fish, do you have to do it yourself by Mr. Mermaid?

Absolutely not.

"Mr. Mermaid and I will go in together." Liu Lang said immediately, followed by the doctor, Qiu Min, Song Jiaojiao... Finally, all the newcomers expressed that they were willing to overcome difficulties and enter the kitchen to search.

So, everyone tied a piece of cloth to cover their mouth and nose, and entered the kitchen with Qiao Yiqiao.

The kitchen was just as they imagined. The ground was full of barrels of sea fish, some of which had been moldy or even rotted due to poor handling. They smelled

The smell is emanating from these wooden barrels, making everyone who sees want to poke their eyes.

Even Liu Lang, who was used to rough work, couldn't help asking, "Are you really looking for it here?"

This is simply a scene of hell.

The doctor wanted to take a deep breath, but thinking of the consequences of taking a deep breath, he forcibly held back, and said in a low voice, "Look, hurry up, scan once and leave."

So in the mood that everyone didn't want to stay for another minute, the entire kitchen was swept away at an unprecedented speed. They searched all kinds of hiding places in boxes, cabinets and barrels, but they still couldn't find the heart.

It's just that I didn't find the heart, but found something else.

"This water is not right." The doctor pointed to the soup pot in the kitchen.

Everyone has mustered up their courage just by staying here, and quickly skipped it when they found out that it was not the heart, so they didn't notice the water problem at all, until the doctor said that they focused their attention here.

It's just that even if the doctor reminded, everyone looked at the soup pot, but still didn't see any problem, "What's the problem?"

The doctor carefully picked up a shriveled berry next to the soup pot from the ground through the cloth, "This is belladonna."

Considering that even if you say this, you probably still don't understand, the doctor explained: "Belladonna is a widely used medicine, which has effects such as analgesia and night sweat treatment, but the fruit of belladonna is poisonous, and the damage to the nerve center is very serious. If you take too much, you will have a headache and convulsions, or you will die.”

While talking, he looked at the soup pot, which is a device specially used to treat fresh water. If the water is poisonous, most of the crew on the ship will be infected.

Thinking of this, the doctor suddenly thought of something, and asked, "By the way, when those crew members died, didn't they make any big movements, as if they didn't resist at all? Did they have any abnormalities before they died? Such as headaches of?"

Everyone really didn't pay attention to this before, only Song Dabao listened, frowned and thought: "Yes, the old sailor who took me said that he had a headache and called me a stupid pig before he died. He's angry."

There's no way, Song Dabao was an old nerd before he came in, let alone work, he wouldn't even pick up the oil bottle when it fell down, now he was suddenly forced to work, so naturally he couldn't do anything.

Tired and scolded, so this memory is particularly clear.

The doctor pursed his lips after hearing this, "Pay attention tomorrow. I suspect that the death of those crew members was conditional. The condition may be the water containing belladonna. If the crew members are prevented from drinking this water, then perhaps these crew members can be prevented from becoming ill. To parasitize the ghosts in our shadows, and even find out the real mastermind behind the scenes."

Qiao Yiqiao thought more about it. According to the normal game dungeon process, five people die every day. The number of these newcomers is obviously not enough. It is very likely that they will all die on the fourth or fifth day, so here There must have been a way to curb the death of the crew before, maybe it was up to the player to discover the water problem.

As for how to find out about the water problem—if more newcomers survive, probably everyone will have a job, so it depends on the person following the chef to find out.It's just that the number of them surviving was too small, and his bug appeared again, so the steps of the game were obviously reversed. First kill the ghosts, and only then found a way to curb the appearance of parasitic ghosts.

But no matter what, a puzzle was finally solved, and it wasn't all fruitless.

"It's not found here, let's go to the storage room."
